MID OHIO CON!

May very well have been two of the best days of my life. I did a ton of sketches for people, (a lot more commissions than I thought I'd get!) and met some really terrific folks. Gave out a lot of business cards and got my work seen, which is always good to do! Someone even wanted to get their picture taken with me after I did a sketch for them, which honestly is something I'd never dreamed would happen! (wherever you are, buddy, thanks a million!)Did a lot of superheroes, a portrait, and 4 Dungeons and Dragons monster pictures for a guy who'd been collecting sketches of them from different artists. He had plenty of dragons so I was more than happy to draw him his first beholder.I met so many awesome people at the con, the guy next to my booth Mike Eshelman (and his awesome perler bead sculptures of 8-bit video game characters) really drew a crowd. I also met the nice fellas at Broken Icon comics who really liked my work. I also did a sketch of the wonderful Michael Berryman, gave him the original and got him to sign a copy for me. One of the nicest people I've ever met and my first meeting with a true movie star.

So in conclusion, yes I had an amazing time, and can't wait to do it again!
